Nearly two months after its premiere, Is God Is has earned a spot on Variety‘s list of the best movies of the year so far.

The film is the screen adaptation of director Aleshea Harris’ play of the same name. Speaking to ABC Audio, Aleshea described the transition from a play to film as a “learning curve.”

“I’m a theater person. I had barely been on a set. So I needed to understand the rules of writing for the screen, which are different. And I needed think about the tools that I had as a filmmaker that I didn’t have on the stage that could work in my favor,” she said. “So it was a lot about thinking about images differently, thinking about how much language was necessary.”

The film stars Kara Young and Mallori Johnson as twin sisters Anaia and Racine, who set out on a revenge mission against their father after he tried to kill them and their mother in a fire, leaving them with severe burn scars. The cast also includes Janelle Monáe, Erika Alexander, Vivica A. Fox and Sterling K. Brown.

Aleshea said collaborating with them was her “favorite aspect of working on the movie.”

“They were so kind and they believed in me and trusted me as a first-time filmmaker,” she said. “There was also from them a protective energy. I could tell that they wanted me to win. They wanted the movie to win, and it was such a delight on set to get to work with them.” 

In its review, Variety praises Kara and Mallori for “holding their own against” against the supporting cast. It notes, “[T]hey’re the year’s most electric double act so far.”

Of Aleshea, the publication adds that she “is conversant in the languages of both ruthless exploitation cinema and radical feminist theatre, with filmmaking brio to match. Whatever she makes next, here’s hoping more attention is paid.”

Danny Glover has publicly revealed he is one of the millions of Americans living with Alzheimer’s disease.

The 79-year-old actor rose to prominence in Lethal Weapon movies in the 1980s. He opened up to NBC News and People about his condition, saying he was diagnosed in 2023 and since then, his speech, movements and memories have gradually declined.

Even though some time has passed since his diagnosis, Glover told People, “I’m still not accepting in my mind all parts of it.”

“There are the moments that you keep remembering that validate the fact that you can remember stuff. And there are moments I’ll never forget,” he added.

ABC News has reached out to Glover’s representative for comment.

Alzheimer’s disease, the most common type of dementia, is a brain disorder that affects thinking, memory, and one’s behavior and abilities.

It’s characterized by symptoms such as short-term memory loss, problem-solving challenges and difficulty with everyday tasks, all of which may start appearing by the age of 60, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The condition is progressive, with nerve cell damage in the brain increasing over time.

Researchers estimate nearly 7 million people in the U.S. live with Alzheimer’s and the number of those impacted is expected to double by 2060.

Alzheimer’s is now the sixth-leading cause of death in adults 65 and older and the seventh-leading cause of death of American adults, the CDC notes.

There is currently no cure for Alzheimer’s disease but some medications and immunotherapies are available that may help slow down the progression of the condition, manage symptoms and improve quality of life for patients.

The trailer shows Segura’s Sage finding Mitchie Torres’ old songbook covered in dust.

Veronica Rodriguez directs Camp Rock 3 from a script by Eydie Faye. The Jonas Brothers and Demi Lovato all executive produce the new film, although Lovato will not reprise her role of Mitchie.

50 Cent has another television series in the works at Starz. He’s teamed with the network for the television adaptation of Cullen Bunn and Jonas Scharf’s supernatural graphic crime novel Bone Parish.

Set in the underworld of New Orleans, the series will follow the Winters family, who build a criminal empire around a new drug that allows users to experience vivid, haunting visions of the past. As demand for the product grows, the family becomes trapped in what a press release describes as “a violent and inescapable nightmare of crime, horror, and family legacy.”

“I’ve always been drawn to stories that break the mold, and Bone Parish does exactly that,” 50 said in a statement. “It takes crime, family, and power, and mixes it with something dark and supernatural, in a way that feels fresh. Exploring what happens when the world of the living gets mixed up with the world of the dead, this story has incredible depth, and we’re building a series that’s going to keep audiences locked in from the first episode.”

50 will executive produce through G-Unit Film & Television with Stephen Christy and Mette Norkjaer from BOOM! Studios, the publisher of the graphic novel, as well as co-showrunners Diane Ademu-John and Declan de Barra.

Bone Parish is the latest addition to 50 Cent’s Starz shows, where Power Book III: Raising Kanan is currently airing. He also serves as executive producer on Fightland, which follows British-born boxer Duke Kilroy as he returns home from jail seeking revenge against the man he believes was responsible for his brother’s death. The show is set to premiere on July 31.

Two more of his shows, Power: Legacy and Power: Origins, have also been greenlit.
